Feed acidifiers have become an integral part of compound feed significantly after the EU ban on antibiotics in 2006. Acidifiers have been gaining strong growth due to its demand among monogastric species such as poultry and swine. The European region was the largest market for feed acidifiers in 2015 due to the strict regulatory restrictions on antibiotics and the increasing popularity for feed acidifiers as a suitable alternative.

The application of feed preservatives is projected to gain strong growth in the feed premix industry

Feed premixes is projected to be the fastest-growing segment, on the basis of feed type, from 2016 to 2022, due to the increased need to sustain the quality of premix ingredients such as vitamins, minerals, and amino acids which are easily perishable and can deteriorate in the presence of light, heat, or air. The growing demand for feed premixes to maintain livestock health in turn would boost the usage of feed preservatives by manufacturers to maintain the premix quality.

Europe accounted for the largest share in the global market in 2015

The European region has been a dominant user of feed preservatives due to the highly regulated environment for feed production, especially in the Western European region. The feed preservatives market has been supported by the increasing focus of the European authorities on food safety concerns and livestock health. The efforts to improve feed conversion efficiency without any loss in nutrient quality has also been a strong factor for feed preservatives to be utilized as an essential feed additive.
